Hi!

AF has just shown up so its time to move on to Jun for me!.

This will be my 2nd IUI, hopefully on 03 Jun, This time round I wont be using Clomid. On CD9 I will go for a scan and see if in need to do some FSH if the follicles arent maturing fast enough before the trigger.

Any other ladies want to join this group and share this months journey?!!

im doing my first iui this cycle after 2 failed femara/trigger/timed intercourse cycles. i start femara again friday. i will probably be looking at doing the iui around june 5. keep in touch! baby dust to you!

Pretty sure I will be joining you for the June IUI. Had second IUI in May with BFN at 12dpiui so now I'm just waiting for AF. I'm thinking this will be our last IUI before moving on to IVF. I did Clomid 100mg first cycle, 150mg second cycle (CD3-7) with trigger shot. We've got some male factor issues (despite a natural pregnancy with our2yo and his 9yo from a previous)--and I'm 42 (follicular count, FSH, estradiol, and AMH have all come back very good tho) so we're feeling the time crunch. What is everyone doing different this time around? FX this is the month for all of us!!! :)

We started stimming this week for our 4th iui...so we should be at the end of May or the beginning of June. Our tww will definitely be in June. I'm taking 75 of gonal-f and my first scan is tomorrow to see how things are coming along.

This time I've asked my doctor about taking aspirin after the iui...I'm wondering if implantation is our problem because we have never gotten a hint of a bfp in almost 2 years of trying. If this round doesn't work it's ivf for us. I hope June is the month of the bfp for us all!

I will start stimming this week too.. friday. i added a baby aspirin this cycle. ive never had a bfp either, and i feel like im grasping at sraws doing whatever might help. I didn't tell my dr about trying the aspirin, but i read a study where taking aspirin resulted in increased pregnancy rates in IVF, so i figured it couldn't hurt. Obviously i don't have any clotting issues, so it should be safe. honestly, if you told me standing on my head reciting the ABC's backwards would get me pregnant id do it!

Hi ladies, how is everyone doing? I had my first scan today, 3 potential follicles on CD9, size 9.8,10.5 and 11.2 my lining is 5.8. Starting 50 of gonal-f today to stimulate the follicles, I'm back on Friday for another scan, looks like Monday or Wednesday next week for my IUI. Hoping I have more than one follicle this month to increase our chances

I also take aspirin daily but I have been diagnosed with what was explained to me as sticky blood. I've had 2 miscarriages last year both unexplained. One theory is that I ovulate very late in my cycle (CD23) naturally so my lining is not optimum for implantation. I also have boarder line high NK cells which is also a factor.

We have been trying natural with the trigger for 6months with no joy. Last month was our first IUI but I felt I ovulated too early.

So fingers crossed for everyone this month hoping we all get our BFP. Xx

Good Morning ladies. I'm officially in your group again. Going for cd3 scans this morning for our 3rd round of iui. I'm feeling optimistic about this one for the first time. My doctor is keeping my stimming meds the same this round and that is bringing me a peaceful feeling. I did ask to be changed to the shot form of progesterone this time around and they agreed to do that so I'm really happy about that as well. I'll be on a family camping trip in the middle of the tww this time so fx that helps implantation. baby dust to you all

So I decided to try Accupunture this month also, had my first session today. Are any of you doing it? It felt very strange and a little painful but felt really good after it.

I'll literally try anything at this stage, I also heard of some called the pineapple theory, where you eat a 5th of a pineapple every day from the day of the IUI to help with implantation. Anyone tried that?

I know they are probably old wives tales but I'll try anything to make this our month. Any other things out there you've heard about that are meant to help??

Good for you. Keeping my fingers crossed for you... can I ask what is the difference between the pessaries and tablets vs the injectables? I'm currently on pessaries and tablets both twice a day after IUI.

I think its just a different delivery method more than anything. Not to be gross but the suppositories we're giving me acne down there and I was not a big fan of that. since needles don't bother me I'd rather give them a try and doctor said no problem

Hey!! I just pulled my trigger (really hoping I mixed it right and everything. The mixing was more intimidating to me than the actual shot) IUI tomorrow! It's my first IUI. I did Letrozole this cycle. But I've done a lot of Clomid cycles!

i had 2 follicles on the right.. 28 & 23! im only cycle day 8, so this is crazy early to have such big follicles. this is the exact dosage of femara ive had the last 2 cycles, and ive never responded this quickly. my lining was only 7 so she didn't want to trigger me based on follicle size alone. she wanted to check my e2 first. she told me to do opk's and if i get a surge, trigger. if not, she will trigger me fri, iui on sat. i worried about those follies being over-ripe, but according to my e2 levels i don't really have mature follicles until they're around 24, so maybe this is just normal for me. i kept asking about the possibility of it being a cyst, but she said it was definitely a follicle. despite the huge follicle sizes, i still feel good about this cycle. normally id be freaking out, but im pretty calm right now. hopefully this is our month! fingers crossed!

Wow, that's great, fingers crossed everything will go well for you, I've had follicles at 28 when I triggered before, Dr never said it was an issue. It's also great you won't be waiting around hoping that they are growing..

I'm back at for a scan tomorrow hoping they have grown some more and we can trigger over the weekend !

Hoping your follies are big and juicy tomorrow! I got a blinking smiley today on my OPK, which means "high fertility", but no surge yet. Im happy to see that, because it was completely negative yesterday. I'll take another tonight, but it is looking like i'll be triggering tomm at the office with iui sat! Getting excited! Baby dust!

We ended up doing our IUIs on Tuesday and Wednesday this week...so the 29th, and 30th. Our beta is on June 12. I just got my AMH results in and apparently I have a low ovarian reserve...so I'm not feeling much hope for this cycle. I only had one follicle that matured...it got to 2.0mm the day before I triggered.

My RE said to start the asprin when I start my progesterone...so I started it today. I feel the same as you...just looking for a solution even though I know there is really no clear cut "solution". I just want a freaking baby!!!!!!!

Im right there with you. sorry about your amh results.. that is discouraging. it only takes one though! i started the aspirin after my period, and not sure if you read my post above, but i responded to the meds super quick this cycle. i had a 23 & 28 on the right side on cd 8 with 7mm lining!! it HAD to be the aspirin! it's the exact dose of meds i had the last 2 cycles, and i never responded like this. im triggering tomm, iui sat, beta on the 16th. praying for all of us and our bfp's!
